Whitelisting SALESmanago IP addresses in Cloudflare

This article described how to add SALESmanago IP addresses to the Cloudflare whitelist. This operation is highly recommended if you use both SALESmanago and Cloudflare.

CIoudflare detects requests that are of non-human origin, such as backend callbacks, webhooks, or XML file downloads. If such requests, coming from a certain IP address, occur in large numbers, Cloudflare may start “blocking” this IP address by displaying interactive challenges that confirm the source is human.

To avoid such situations and ensure smooth data transfer for your e-store, you can whitelist SALESmanago IP addresses in Cloudflare. Even if you have not experienced such blocking action from Cloudflare yet, this operation is still recommended to prevent potential issues in the future.
